if it's been sitting for a year...the tires are most likely gonna have flat spots on them. also check for cracking along the side walls of the tires. if they're. it's recommended to replace them if they are in those conditions. gasoline probably has gone stale. get some new gas and change out the fuel filter. check your drive belts. if you haven't already done so, i would also check the main relay first before replacing fuel pump. main relay controls the fuel pump...so if that's bad...your fuel pump won't work. i would also go ahead and check spark plugs, dist cap, dist rotor, and ign wires too. replace those as needed
